COVID-19 in North Yorkshire: April 2021-July 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed some of the frailties of the health and social care system. This report focuses on some of the common health and social care issues we heard about between April and July 2021.

The prominence of COVID-19 as a challenge to health and social care has begun to recede, and lockdown restrictions have now hopefully been lifted on a permanent basis. 

Summary

We have recorded 521 pieces of public feedback and/or signposting in the four months of April 1st to July 31st, hearing from 544 people. This feedback has formed the basis of this report. 

We continue to help and support members of the public and gather their feedback to help inform decision-makers (via reports like this one).

This report indicates some of the key themes we heard about between April and July 2021. 

Key themes: 

  • Dentistry
  • COVID-19 Vaccination Programme
  • GP Services
  • Hospitals
  • Mental Health Support
